A MONSTROUS OUTRAGE.
Two Boys, Convicted and Imprisoned on an Ex-
torted Confession, Now Declared Innocent.

MILWAUKEE. Jan. 25.-Three years ago next
May, Mahlon Mccullough and William Puetz,
two boys connected with some of the leading
families of Bayview, were sent to the State prls-
on for three years upon conviction of having
shot and robbed August Grothe, street.car
driver. To-day. Father Decker, pastor of st.
Anthony's Church, announces that the boys are
innocent, and that the guilty man has made
himself known to him through the confessional.
He refuses. however, to divulge the name of the
latter, but has asked Governor Rusk to pardon
Puetz and Mccullough The assault on Grothe
was made on dark night in the suburbs of
this city, in true highwayman style Grothe re-
fused to surrender his change box and was shot,
it was supposed. fatally. At sight of the bleed
ing body, Mrs Grothe became a raving maniac,
and is now confined in an asylum At the trial
the detectives testified that the boys confessed
their part in the attack and robbery. Puetz and
Mccullough swore that the confession was
forced from them; that for ten days they were
beaten, starved, hung up by the thumbs, and
otherwise ill-treated, and that they confessed to
escape starvation. Twenty witnesses testified
to an alibi, but they were convicted. McCul-
Tough is said to be dying from consumption.

THE ROCK ISLAND ROBBERY.
A Former Brakeman Charged with the Crime
Sharp Practice that Failed to Work.

CHICAGO, Jan. 25.--In a most unexpected man.
ner, to-day, the perpetration of the great Rock
Island train robbery was directly charged
against Henry Schwartz, a former brakeman of
the road. He is tonight in the custody of Off
GERS from the place where the crime was COM
mitted, and will haye to answer indictments not
only for the robbery, but also for the murder OF
Express Messenger Nichols. Some time ago
Schwartz was arrested here, and placed in Jail,
ostensibly on charge of bigamy. There was more
or less for holding him that account, but
the fact of his having been one of the hrakemen
on Nichols's train the night of the robbery, and
that he had since been spending money freely,
led to the impression that the real cause of his
detention was suspicion of his connection with
the train robbery. The Rock Island officials and
the detectives denied such was the case, and
Schwartz himself boldly defed sany one to in
crminate him in that respect Until to-day he
has remained quietly in Jail, and his ar
rest had long ceased to be a subject
of comment. This afternoon Schwartz's
attorneys went to the Circuit Court while Judge
Anthony was trying q murder case and private
ly stated to the judge that their client was ready
to give bail. The circumstances surrounding
the arrest had so completely dropped ont of pub
lie attention recently that the judge did not
recollect anything in the matter, and he. off
handed. fixed the bail as requested, naming $2, :
600 as the amount Sureties were waiting in
the corridor, and Schwartz would have been re-
leased in short order had not an attendant acci-
dentallv overheard some Of the conversation in
the hall, and hurriedly telephoned the officers
who arrested Schwartz These quickly returned
word to Judge Anthony. who delayed in signing
the papers. Before Schwartz had enjoyed a
moment of liberty he was grabbed by two of
ficers holding capases that had been provided
for such emergency. The documents showed
that Schwarts had been indicted by the grand
jury Of Grundy county for murder and highway
robbery. A cab was called at once into which
Schwartz, handcuffed and closely guarded, was
hustled and quickly driven to the depot He is
now at Morris, Ill where he will have an ex-
animation tomorrow.

THE GLENBEIGH TENANTS.

General Butler Obtained Reduction of
Rents, Which They Refused Pay.
LONDON, Jan. 25.--It transpires that Gen. Sir
Redvers Butler, some time ago, had corre-
spondence with the London agent of the Winn
estate, in Glenbeigh, with the object of
effecting compromise with the tenants
The agent consented to q reduction of
rent, but all efforts to induce the
tenants to pay their modified rents failed, and
the evictions followed. Father Quilter wrote
General Buller in December, regretting that
only seventeen tenants had been prevailed upon
to pay the reduced rents. He declared that
General Butler had acted in most kind hearted
manner.
A party of evictors started this morning to
oust James Griffin from farm at Ba!iinakillet
The tenant resisted a previous attempt to eyict
him and a lively fight occurred then.
The tenants the Brew property in West
Clare, demanded reduction of 90 per cent in
Fonts and threatened to adopt plan of cam
paign if the demand was not complied with
The landlords, however. forced the tenants to
pay the full rents, by menacing them with bank
ruptcy.
Eviction was resumed at Glenbeieh. TODAY.
six families were dispossessed. and FIVE were re-.
placed as caretakers.

WARNING TO PENSION CLAIMANTS.
They Will Save Money by Avoiding Agent
and Applying to the Bureau.

They viii Save Money by Avoiding Agents
and Applying to the Bureau.
Special to the indianapolis Journal
WAsHINGToN, Jan. 25.-The Washington
claim agents have already commenced opera
tions to collect retaners from the parents of ex-
soldiers who may be affected by the provisions
of the pension bill recently passed by the House
These industrious persons are flooding the
mails with circulars inviting dependent parents
to place claims in their hands, and soliciting an
initial fee. Should the bill pass the Senate and
receive the approval of the President. regu-
latons will be established by the Pension Office
which will enable those Immediately concerned
to file their claims and have them settled with
out the Intervention of claim agents. Parties
receiving circulars from Washington claim
agents should defer action until the bill is
passed ard the Pension Office has had time ia
prepare the necessary regulations for giving
effect to the proposed law. The claim agents
cannot assist them at this time, and claimants
will save money and vexation by awaiting the
action of the Commissioner Of Pensions.
